At approximately 4:30 p.m. on Friday, Farmington Police charged 23-year-old Jeffrey Smith, who they say is homeless, in connection with his alleged theft of an undisclosed amount of cash from the fast food restaurant at 457 Main St. around 12:30 p.m. on Thursday.

No weapon was shown during the incident and there were no injuries.

The cash has not yet been recovered, according to Police Chief Kevin Willey.

Willey said after posting surveillance photos of the suspect, Community Corrections immediately identified the suspect as Smith.

“Then my wife, who works in Rochester, actually noticed the truck that was pictured,” Willey said. She had seen it pass by earlier Friday.

“She called me and we were able to stop the vehicle, speak with the driver of the truck,” and based upon the information received, they were able to issue an arrest warrant for the robbery.

Smith was arrested at a relative’s residence in Rochester and was transported to Farmington for processing.

A suspect wearing a Red Sox sweat shirt, shown in this surveillance photo, robbed the Subway in Farmington on Thursday, according to police.

The Rochester Police Department assisted with the arrest.

Willey said before this offense, Smith was already wanted on a probation violation.

Smith was detained at the Strafford County House of Corrections on a probation violation after he allegedly absconded from drug court, Willey said.

Smith will be arraigned at Rochester Circuit Court on Monday, March 11, at 11 a.m.
